Re: Monitoring temperature with acpi (sysctls)

I need to be able to get the cpu and fan information from my
motherboard, however none of the monitoring utilities in the ports

Nvidia, i can get this information using ACPI and the hw.acpi.thermal
sysctl. This however is not available on this motherboard. Would this
be a shortcoming of the motherboards ACPI implementation, or a lack of
support by freebsd?

Similar problem to me here with a ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe. The older
versions of this motherboard type like A8N-SLI Deluxe and maybe A8N-SLI
Premium had thermal zones in ACPI output, but not the A8N32-SLI. No
temperature, no fanspeed, no thermal zones.

ASUS P800 SE i865e chipset - problems too.
